their part in ensuring that the Woolies business is resilient in the face of climate change, while
always making every effort to reduce their impact on the environment, by doing everything they can
to think ahead, reduce their energy consumption and carbon emissions, and use more renewable
energy sources wherever possible. With specific reference to the information on the Woolworths

impact on the environment. ................................................................................................................... 3
